Today is the 4th Sunday of Advent and we have two true legends for you! Both will travel to Wacken from Amercia and we can't wait to welcome them!

 

Metal Church

The band was found in the early 80s in Seattle and is one the pioneers of Speed and Thrash-Metal. They have released 10 studio albums in this time, the last in 2013. Their only Wacken show so far was in 1999 - it's time!
